Style: Greytonal. Genre: Horror / Humour. Time
Span: Fantasy. Nudity: Voluptuous girl.Keywords: Insanity. Surreal. Revenge. Cousin Creepy (also
in Eerie version).Synopsis: Madman Mr. Diment runs surreal scenes on psychology
Nugent's family. He also fights all the time with Hugo, his hunchback
servant.Comment: Full of brilliant frames and surreal ideas, but
story, by Doug Moench, goes a little bit too far and
the ending clue is not so clear. Mr. Diement knocks interesting
meta levels with frame borders.Special:
There is two full color frames
from the story as a
part of five frame collage on the front cover art in Creepy #54 (1973);
three other frames are not by Corben. Used frames are: second wide frame
from page four, "Omigod
Noooooo." (man facing butterfly monsters) and first frame
from page six, "Sqwunch" (train driving over man's
head). Corben: "The Slipped Mickey Click Flip" was a takeoff on all the old horror comics and their often-silly horror hosts. The story didn't make much sense in a normal, linear way; it was surreal because it kept jumping from the internal story to the external story of the insane host and his psychotic assistant. I joined in the madness, adding many bizarre details. It was a lot of fun. [bloody-disgusting.com]
